DISCOUNTED LIFE ASSURANCE COVER

Would you like to buy life assurance cover at a discount, or reduce the cost of your existing life assurance cover? Then we have good news for you. In the wake of the major changes to pensions legislation that took effect from 6 April 2006, various pension contribution limits have been relaxed. One important change means that you can purchase life assurance and obtain tax relief on the premiums.

Prior to 6 April 2006, tax relief was available on pension term assurance but it was limited to premiums of no more than 10% of a person’s total pensionable allowance. A person could also only take out pension term assurance alongside a personal pension plan.

There is no longer any need for pension term assurance to be connected to a personal pension. Furthermore, the special restrictions on pension term assurance premiums have also been removed.

You will find further information on pension term on a new section of our website.
